[f2fs-dev] [PATCH] f2fs: reduce stack memory cost by using bitfield in struct f2fs_io_info

[Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>]

This patch tries to use bitfield in struct f2fs_io_info to improve
memory usage.

struct f2fs_io_info {
...
	int need_lock:8;	/* indicate we need to lock cp_rwsem */
	int version:8;		/* version of the node */
	int submitted:1;	/* indicate IO submission */
	int in_list:1;		/* indicate fio is in io_list */
	int is_por:1;		/* indicate IO is from recovery or not */
	int retry:1;		/* need to reallocate block address */
	int encrypted:1;	/* indicate file is encrypted */
	int post_read:1;	/* require post read */
...
};

After this patch, size of struct f2fs_io_info reduces from 136 to 120.
